Make Pasta Salad:

Bring large pot of salted water to boil. Add pasta and cook until al dente. Strain and transfer to large bowl.

Make Dressing: 

In small bowl, whisk all ingredients except olive oil. While whisking, stream in olive oil. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.

Add red onions, tomatoes, cucumbers, olives, green peppers and feta to bowl with pasta. Pour dressing over pasta and mix well. Cover and refrigerate at least 3 hours. Serve at room temperature and mix well before serving.
